Every child has the same opportunities to learn at Caverstede Early Years Centre in Peterborough, Cambridgeshire, where a quarter of the children are classed as having additional needs.
Through a fully inclusive ethos, the centre is able to support children with a range of disabilities including autism, speech and language difficulties, multiple and profound needs, impaired sight and hearing, as well as those with significant strengths and from a range of cultural backgrounds.
The centre won the Nursery World Inclusive Practice Award 2010. Its local authority also designed the Peterborough Inclusion Charter Mark, now used across all settings in the area, on the Caverstede model.
